It is our pleasure to have you participate in the meeting that encompasses the theme of “Elements & Strategies for a Better Future”. We hope that you can participate fully in the varied program of workshops, poster sessions, symposia, social events, exhibits, and lectures, and that you find them to be stimulating and inspiring. Our Program Chairs have constructed an outstanding technical program with excellent speakers that embrace all of the fields of chemistry, including special programs in Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Medicinal Chemistry and others. Of course, one of the purposes of any meeting is to make connections with your colleagues. Please take advantage of the many social activities, especially on Wednesday evening during our opening reception. This reception will also mark the opening of our exhibition when our exhibitors will be at their booths during that poster session. Many universities will also be displaying their programs and this is an excellent opportunity for students to become familiar with the variety of opportunities that are available. We also hope that you plan to attend the Ice Cream social on Thursday where members of the ACS Board of Directors will be in attendance. We are grateful for the many sponsors and exhibiters that have assisted in funding this meeting. In addition to visiting them in the exhibit area, you may find more information about them in the ACS Meeting Mobile Application that accompanies this meeting. We extend a special welcome to teachers that are attending the meeting. We hope that you will find the special education programs and workshops on Saturday to be a source of new and creative ideas. Thanks for being here! Enjoy the meeting and make successful career connections!

The meeting, hosted by the ACS Cincinnati Section, will highlight “Elements & Strategies for a Better Future,” which explores advances in analytical chemistry and its intersections with diverse scientific and technological domains. Symposia will cover biochemistry, medicinal and natural products chemistry, inorganic and organometallic chemistry, catalysis, organic and green chemistry, physical and computational chemistry, materials science and nanotechnology, sensors, and polymer chemistry. Special symposia include “What Is Happening Down on the Pharm?” and “Analytical Chemistry & Its Connections to Chemical Engineering, and BioInspired Chemistry.” The meeting will also feature plenary lectures on analytical chemistry and pharmaceutical/medicinal chemistry. In addition to the reception on opening night, social events include a banquet honoring Analytical Chemistry, a Women Chemists Committee/ACS Scholars luncheon, an ice cream social, an Awards cocktail reception and an outing on a Cincinnati River Boat. With all these events and great symposia, I want to express my special thanks to the CERM Committee Members and to our host at the Cincinnati Section for their hard work and dedication to create a great experience here in Covington.

Nelson 2016 President American Chemical Society ACS Central Regional Meeting 2016 3 April 23, 2016 Dear American Chemical Society, On behalf of the City of Covington, Kentucky, it is my pleasure to welcome the American Chemical Society’s 47th Central Regional Meeting to our city and to our Northern Kentucky Convention Center. Your meeting days from May 18-21, 2016 will be filled with exceptional speakers and great networking opportunities. This year’s theme, Elements & Strategies for a Better Future, tied to your mission “to advance the broader chemistry enterprise and its practitioners for the benefit of Earth and its people”, should be inspiring and energizing to the expected 1,000 professionals attending. During your visit, hope you have time to explore Covington and the surrounding areas. Our historic Licking Riverside Neighborhood, just several blocks towards the east, is a beautiful place to see historic architecture and view the Ohio River. Walk the river side of the flood wall to see the Roebling Murals up close. If you are ready for good casual dining, the Gruff, Blinkers, Keystone and Molly Malone’s are located in the Roebling Point area just a little south of the Kentucky side of the Roebling Suspension Bridge. A little south of the Embassy Hotel on Madison Ave. is several popular ethnic dining experiences, Amerasia, Riverside Korean and Wabi-Sabi. On the west side of Covington is MainStrasse, a village like atmosphere offering many more dining options and shops. To explore the Cincinnati side of the Ohio River, take a relaxing walk on the Roebling Suspension Bridge, a bridge known internationally for its signature engineering and design, or try Red-Bike for some fun. The Southbank Shuttle trolley is a convenient way to travel not just to Cincinnati, but also to Newport across the Licking River and to our MainStrasse area. Hoping your experience in Covington will be as memorable as your 47th Central Regional Meeting.
